About Us
Paquette Pools & Spas is a fourth generation family owned and operated swimming pool construction and retail operation. Started in 1923 by Phil Paquette, the then Paquette Construction Company built commercial structures such as bridges and institutional buildings. Later, Paquette Construction became Paquette Homes and Construction, and built quality residences recognized as some of Manchester and the surrounding area's best built homes. To this day, when a home built by the Paquettes is advertised for sale, the ad will often include a statement that the home is a "Paquette House."
In 1957, Gerry Paquette, son of founder Phil Paquette, wanted a swimming pool at his home. The very first "Paquette Pool" was built in Gerry Paquette's back yard. Paquette Homes and Construction branched out to include inground swimming pools as part of its business. In the 1990s, the Paquette's decided to focus on building and servicing quality inground swimming pools, and selling pool accessories, including spas, chemicals, and outdoor furniture at their retail store in Hooksett. "Paquette Homes and Construction" became "Paquette Pools and Spas."
Bud and Phil Paquette are the third generation to own and operate the Paquette businesses, and have been doing so for over thirty years. Joined by five of their children—the fourth generation of Paquettes in the Paquette businesses—Bud, Phil, and the entire Paquette family are dedicated to offering the highest quality swimming pool construction, pool and spa service, and related products in the region.
